Der of the Cabinet-Political Notes.
WASHINGTON CRY, Sept 5.-The conven.
ton of the so-called American party, which
will convene at Philadelphia Sept. 10, is ex-
citing the attention of those who closely
watch political movements The arrange
ments for holding this cow ention have been
perfected so quietly that it is suspected the
organization is more comprehensive in MEM
bership and extensive in jurisdiction than has
been supposed. The assembling Of the con-
vention will therefore be awaited with con-
siderable interest, and its proceedings insrv-
ously watched BY. thu leaders Of the TIVE old
it is proposed to establish in New York city q
weekly newspaper to explain and advocate
the principles and aims Of the ORDER Large
subscriptions have already been made for
this purpose, and it Is anticipated that event
ually the enterprise may take the form Of q
daily paper. A gentleman from New York
says the various organisations that have been
affiliating with the American order or party
have selected delegates TO the number of $50.
The reticence of the leaders in the Amer
Jean party movement is puzzling to the poll
ticians, who are curious to learn all its pur-
poses that they may be able to speculate upon
the problem as to whether the American
party will draw greater memb ership from
the Republican or Democratic parties 1t Ia
expected that one of the principal declara-
tions of the Philadelphia convention will be
in favor of stringent law imposing certain
restrictions on foreign immigration.
